Karen Hanner

Welcome to the Karen Hanner State Farm Agent office in Albany, GA! Since opening my agency in 2018, I’ve proudly served not only Albany and Dougherty County but also my Good Neighbors throughout all of Southwest Georgia, including Terrell, Lee, Mitchell, Grady County, and beyond. Whether you’re from Leesburg, Dawson, Thomasville, Americus, or elsewhere in Georgia, we’d love to welcome you! We actually cover all of Georgia, SC, AL and even FL! Our agency offers a wide range of insurance options to help protect what matters most to you.

Need Auto Insurance for your new or used cars? Home or Condo Insurance to help protect your living space and belongings? Life Insurance to help protect your loved ones down the road? We've got you covered. We also assist tenants with Renters Insurance, small business owners with Business Insurance, pet parents with Pet Insurance, and more!

We’re committed to helping each of our State Farm customers choose coverage that aligns with their unique needs and lifestyles. I’m a Southwest Georgia native and a proud member of the Albany Area Chamber of Commerce.

Prior to becoming your local State Farm Agent, I graduated from the University of Georgia with a B.A. in Journalism and served as a local news anchor for eight years; many people still know me as “the newslady!” Even when I’m not in the office, I love giving back to my community by supporting local nonprofits and schools. I’m proud to have been named Top Insurance Agent and one of Southwest Georgia’s 40 Under 40 by the Albany Herald for my commitment to my community.

Beyond work and community service, I enjoy splitting my free time between Dougherty and Terrell counties along with my husband, Jeff. We have four amazing children, a dog, a few cows and a donkey! I like to cook, travel, workout and occasionally play golf and pickleball with my husband and friends.

If you’re looking for an insurance team that truly cares, give our agency a call. We look forward to helping you protect what matters most to you!
